I help teams run AWS production environments that stay secure, cheap to run, and ready for AI workloads. After 7 years in cloud and platform engineering, I focus on getting agentic AI systems into production safely. WHAT I DO - Agentic AI infrastructure: deploy and operate AI agents on AWS (Lambda, ECS Fargate, EKS) with least-privilege IAM, secrets handling, human approval gates, logging, and cost controls. - AI-assisted engineering workflows: Claude Code setups, Jira-to-pull-request agent pipelines, automated test and review loops, and the CI guardrails that keep them safe. - Kubernetes on EKS: zero-downtime upgrades, Karpenter and cost tuning, ArgoCD GitOps, private control planes, incident response. - Infrastructure as Code and CI/CD: Terraform, CloudFormation, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions. - Data platform infrastructure: Aurora PostgreSQL migrations, integrity hardening, CDC to ClickHouse, backups and disaster recovery. - Security and compliance: ISO 27001 and SOC 2 remediation, IAM hardening, automated secret rotation, encryption in transit and at rest. RECENT RESULTS - Upgraded two production EKS clusters to Kubernetes 1.34 ahead of end of standard support, avoiding about $8,700 a year in extended support fees. - Added 20+ foreign key constraints to live production PostgreSQL tables replicated through CDC, with orphan archiving and a snapshot before every production change. - Built automated IAM access key rotation (Lambda, EventBridge, Secrets Manager) that refreshes running workloads with no manual step. - Set up cross-region database backups with 30-day point-in-time recovery and 12-month retention for audits. - Cut a client's cloud bill by about $1,000 a month by removing unused volumes, load balancers, and databases. HOW I WORK A short written plan before any change. A snapshot and a rollback plan before anything touches production. Documentation and runbooks your team can use without me. CERTIFICATIONS AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate, HashiCorp Certified Terraform Associate, Cisco CCNA. Send me your current setup and the one thing that worries you most. I will reply with a first assessment and a fixed-price proposal.
